Has anyone made a Disappearing 16 patch quilt with these little squares? I found lots of good ideas for the D16P blocks on this blog:

Hello Ladies
Happy March!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well spring is gonna be here in 2 weeks. According to the groundhog he said we would have 6 more weeks of winter. well that was 4 weeks ago (feb 2) so I figure we are almost done with all this white stuff! And I'm keeping that varmint to his word!!!

Besides my lawn care company sent me a postcard last week telling me that they would be out to fertilize my lawn. so either I will have more snow or green snow......I will keep you updated!

Well I have officially closed the sign up for our swap. We are at 34 quilters! Yeah looks like a great group! I hope we all have fun!

So here is the official group: (if your name is not here Panic) no just send me a PM and I will panic!

I don't think anyone will be upset if you do this... HA! But think about doing it, times 33, plus the extra $ for shipping, times 33... If you are able and want to I say 'go for it', but I am not able to. You are sweet. I'd love to send a big box full of chocolate and goodies to each one of us... in my virtual world!

Got my March cards addressed and ready to go out, a week before the birthdays. Thanks, Barbara.

You are so welcome mrshalibut - - I needed to get a head start on this due to some traveling obligations that I have in March.

WOW can't believe we are starting a new year of candies. I loved all my candies from last year and will get busy cutting everything for this year. I did a PDF of the the swappers like I did last year. It really helped me stay on track on when I mailed. It was great when it was my turn to receive candies I could mark down who I had received from so I could thank everyone properly. I have attached the list to share with everyone. Happy Swapping!!!

I used your .pdf as the basis for a Xcel spreadsheet. Less than 5 minutes later, it was all set up. You saved me some time! Thanks.
